Protective genes expressed in endothelial cells: a regulatory response to injury

Bach, Fritz H., Hancock, Wayne W., Ferran, Christiane·1997·Immunology Today

Abstract

Endothelial cells (ECs) have evolved to guard against insults that incite inflammation. Response to injury is an active process that, if uncontrolled, can progress to EC death (apoptosis). Here Fritz Bach and colleagues suggest that ECs have a balancing component to their proinflammatory response: they upregulate a set of protective genes, including anti-apoptotic genes, that serve to limit the activation process and thereby regulate the response to injury.

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • A20 exerts multiple hepatoprotective functions through combined anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, and pro-proliferative effects in hepatocytes.

    “We previously demonstrated that A20/tnfaip3, a key element of the cellular response to injury and inflammation (12, 13), exerts multiple hepatoprotective functions through combined anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, and pro-proliferative effects in hepatocytes (14–16).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
